[Q] Customization - Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.

Hi everyone,
I am trying to find for last few hours in the registry, where I can modify opacity of the start menu color. I want from that color to be a little transparent.
Have anyone found that?
Thanks.

I heard that the Start menu transparency will come on the next update, so you could just wait.

Side Bar

Hi,
I've been using my new HD2 for almost a week and I'm very happy with it. I've a little problem, however, that the special function of the side bar has disappeared. That is, when you press the side roll bar, it will become bigger and make you easier to control and roll the bar up/down. But this morning when i press the side bar, it doesn't enlarge itself, though i'm still able to roll it up and down. I really love to have it enlarged when pressed. Can you tell me how to make this function work again? Thanks.
noticed mine has disapeared too, i had to hard reset my phone for a different reason and it still hasnt come back. i`d really like it back too.

I think they're talking about scroll bars that get bigger when you put your thumb/finger on them.
Guys - what applications are they not working in? Do they work, for example, in file explorer?

its not present in any applications, its like it was an app itself and somehow been deleted. like i said i`v hard reset a couple of times for various reasons but been missing that scroll bar icon for a while now. to me its not the end of the world but it can be a bit fiddly at times.
You know what? This is totally strange!
Reading this post I said to myself: let's check. Stupor, the magnifying part of the scroll bar is gone, vanished!
I wonder if the guys from HTC are aware of that…
Well mine still works. Have you guys been adding any theme mods?
Maybe you folks changed the theme?
The biggie smalls scrollbars only work on the default HTC Black theme, if you select one of the WM6.5 designer themes or download your own the magic scrollbars will be turned off.

You're right! I changed back from Rock and Republic black theme to HTC Black and is working.
maybe it can be done a port of it on the other themes.

Maybe, that would be nice.
The thing that's stopped me from getting new themes for the HD2 is exactly the loss of those scrollbars.

time AND date in notification bar?

I came from windows mobile where it's a simple registry edit to have the time icon in the notification bar display time and date instead. Can we do something similar with android on our nexus ones?

You would have almost no space for notifications.

Nah, just shrink the font and it can fit without taking up much more space than the time already takes up. It sure would be handy to be able to just look up for the date while in a program.
Grab the notification bar, pull it down a bit and the date is there...

[7/8/16] Meet the new Samsung UI....

From 1st to 4th... New lock screen, new recents, new notification shade (2 pics).
7/8/16- Download latest version of Good Lock app (v24.0.11)
what is this? it doesn't look like anything out right now....how did you get it?
Apparently you can download the apk from sammobile but it's not working for me... I get a parsing package error. I'm on 5.1.1 when I tried this so you probably need 6.0.1 for it to work. On sammobile, the post was towards s7/s7e users through...
Give the dowbload link

EDIT: i installed it on my s6 with MM....and it works
http://www.sammobile.com/2016/03/29...screen-for-your-galaxy-s7-and-galaxy-s7-edge/
Here's link
quick review:
1. it looks nice, but you can't change the color of the notification panel and toggles
2. the recent apps screen reminds me of older android versions, no picture or tabs, just the name of the app
hope they update it with some more settings

You can change the colours by editing the default routine, or creating a new one.

thanks, but it's a bit annoying, if you make your own profile it needs to have the location toggle on, if you cancel it everytime you wake up the device it asks to enable location toggle, and pressing the recent apps button is slow, and when you press the home button to get to the home screen there is a delay....i guess it's not ready yet

Same problems as you. Uninstalled....... for now. Hopefully it gets lots of updates with new features, bug fixes, etc. That'd be really awesome. Can't wait to see how this develops.

Official Android 9.0

Here is the ota : https://developers.google.com/android/ota
Es ist da !!!
Just got the OTA on a Verizon Pixel 2 and it's 1139 MB. Yikes, dl now.
Updated just now via OTA. I don't feel it's polished yet, still some things left not taken care of. E.g. Spacing of the icons in the dock is unbelievable and the clock icon is pixelated. Probably more.
can not enable wind mode help me

I'm not seeing that but I might not know exactly what you're talking about. Can you explain a little further?
Spacing between the icons and the Google search widget in the Pixel launcher dock is too big and illogical. Also, when tapping on the widget and then opening an app from those suggestions, the animation is not the new one, rather the one from Oreo and previous versions. Share animation is still inconsistent and swiping through apps via the nav bar pill is sometimes skipping animation.
I think Google didn't really know what to change so they forced this P update and it's not polished. I know some of this is nitpicking, but they're worlds biggest software company and these things shouldn't happen.

I'm being unusually thick today and I'm just not seeing any of this stuff. Is there an official post of the changes and where the heck they are *exactly*? To say wind in do not disturb doesn't help me today as noted above.
I'm not getting the OTA I opted into the Beta when the DP5 released but I factory reset my device after it installed do i have to manually flash it or opt out of the Beta?

I'm pretty sure I saw an OTA for DP5 - final from someone. I'd wait a little bit until it all shakes out.
edit: yeah it looks like dp5 to final is only like 45 MB or so. Might just want to wait. This is from the 2 XL forum though.
running fine here, except can't use Android pay Fresh factory image and update to Pie. No, this is the final Android 9

That's pretty cool. I'll try it for a while. Does that get rid of the "clear all" apps tab? Still not seeing Wind down mode anywhere. Any help with that one?
edit: Looks like Wind mode and grayscale is not yet available.
two button navigation, it's an option in Settings. Someone beat me to it ?
Trying to flash the factory image, I get an error of it not being able to find system.img for some reason.
Don't know is it a fearure or a bug
But the brightness slider is acting weirdly
From 0 to 80% it is dim and from 80 to 100% it brighten up the screen
Does anyone else facing this issue ?

Android 10 black bar issue

I updated to the new Android 10 and it's really good so far with the new animations and quirks here and there . But for some annoying reason Samsung decided to add this white/black bar underneath the keyboard and it's really uncomfortable and takes so much screen estate . Tried uninstalling and reinstalling Gboard but it's still there and there's no option to disable it . Any ideas on how to get rid of it ?
I think you can find it somewhere inside the Display > Navigation Bar > and the one that has something to do with they keyboard option (I'm sorry I don't have my phone with me right now)
Thats strange. I dont have that black bar under keyboard

Do you have the option for having hide button on keyboard or something like that? It's a toggle under the options for gestures.

Technically I guess. It's call [Invaser]Faceless in the Samsung Themes store.
It's in display settings
Turn off show hide keyboard button.
